After the House passes the Casino and Entertainment Complex Bill, which is tentatively scheduled for the following week, the Senate does form a committee to examine the effects of the proposed casino-entertainment difficult task.
Two movements related to the job have been put on the plan for the April 8 meeting, according to Pisit Apiwattanapong, a legislator and official of the Senate committee on Senate matters. He claimed that as the House progresses with its deliberations, senators will be able to question these motions and establish a committee to examine the bill and its probable effects.
According to Mr. Pisit, the Senate is still divided on the subject, with the majority of legislators calling for a public hearing before a decision is made.
Due to rumors that the House investigation of the expenses will be moved up to Thursday rather than April 9, critics of the casino-entertainment difficult project are ramping up their campaign. On Thursday, some are anticipated to rally protest outside parliament.
Wisut Chainarun, the general government whip, made it clear on Wednesday that the act would not be examined on Thursday but would be reexamined on April 9. He added that the new disaster would be the topic of Thursday’s meet.
On Wednesday, opposition and People’s Party ( PP ) leader Natthaphong Ruengpanyawut and House Speaker Wan Muhamad Noor Matha and Secretary-general of the Stop Gambling Foundation Thanakorn Kromkrit submitted a petition opposing the bill. He demanded that the opposition make a referendum proposal and that all political parties reject the act.
Mr. Thanakorn criticized the game plan as careless, claiming that it was unrelated to any vote campaign and lacked a thorough analysis. The drive to pass the bill could lead to further cultural groups, he said, and it was gambling with society’s future.
The PP leader urged the government to take into account public concerns while reiterating that the bill does not address the issues it aims to address and might eventually benefit some groups.
Previous red-shirt leader Jatuporn Prompan urged critics to gather outside parliament on Thursday for a protest and use white shirts.
He criticized the government for passing the bill despite widespread concerns about the recent earthquake and those who are also encased beneath dust.
Chittawan Chanagul, a professor of economics at Kasetsart University, stated that her group intends to appeal organizations to establish an ethics investigation into former prime minister Paetongtarn Shinawatra.
